About The Hartmann Korby Team

Our "My Client Comes First" Philosophy

There are many qualities and skills that go into being an excellent real estate professional - integrity, in-depth community and market knowledge, marketing savvy, effective negotiation skills and a high-quality professional network, all of which are hallmarks of how we work.

That said, in our experience as Minneapolis/St.Paul area real estate professionals, we have also found that providing the very best service is essentially about putting our clients first. This means keeping the team accessible, being a good listener as well as a good communicator, and responding quickly to your needs.

This "client first" philosophy has always been our approach and it requires the team to continually improve their skills and ways of doing business. In addition, we have found that the latest technologies are enabling us to do everything we've always done, only much more quickly and efficiently. They've also helped us to extend the range of services we provide to our clients.

Areas of Expertise

Our team can assist clients throughout the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, however our team's main focus and expertise is in the areas of Como Park and Roseville. I've been a resident of Como Park since 1995 and am very familiar with the differences and naunces of each neighborhood within Como. My knowledge of the area helps me assist sellers in pricing their homes correctly for maximum resale value, but also assists buyers in locating and obtaining the perfect home at the right price. I also have extensive experience in and around Oakdale, Woodbury, Maplewood, Macalester Groveland and Highland Park.

Testimonials

"My wife and I can't say enough about our experience working with Shawn Korby. Shawn helped us find the perfect home in the beautiful Como Lake area of St. Paul. Thanks to Shawn's eagerness and diligence, we now own a home that we never thought would be available. Shawn also helped us through the process of selling a home. The guidance and advice given was second to none. Our home was sold shortly after it was listed. Whether it's his responsiveness or enthusiasm, professionalism or confidence, we hold Shawn Korby in the highest regard. Thank you for the opportunity to share our positive experience. We feel lucky to have Shawn Korby as a realtor."

"It was just by chance that Arek and I met Shawn Korby while looking for a house in the Twin Cities. We had been living in Canada for the past 10 years. As we drove through town looking at houses independently, we met several agents, but chose to have Shawn work for us. What we appreciated most was Shawn's genuine concern for our best interests. He is honest, patient and really takes the time to listen. He got to know us and our lifestyle needs and worked hard to show us the possibilities. His commitment to his clients is 100%. We wouldn't consider using anyone else, and will recommend him to any of our
friends looking to buy a home."

Claudia Chen and Arek Tesarczyk

"As first time homebuyers, we were nervous, excited, and skeptical all at the same time. Shawn was recommended to us by one of our friends since we had no idea what we were getting into. In Shawn, we found a reliable realtor, an honest person, and most importantly a friend. Shawn always answered every question we had and provided an unbiased viewpoint as we changed our minds daily about whether or not buying was for us. At no point did we feel that Shawn was motivated by money and he never put pressure on us to make a decision. This was hardly the case with many of the realtors that we met as we were house hunting. Shawn was always readily available to meet with us, and often at times that were not normal "business" hours. All in all, we feel extremely fortunate that we were able to work with Shawn and will definitely work with him again. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home."
